The festival takes place between the coastal town of Ballycastle and Rathlin Island on the northeast coast of Antrim. It runs over 10 days and will kick off on Friday 26 May, continuing until Sunday 4 June. The festival celebrates the maritime heritage and culture of the area.
The festival will welcome boats and ships of all types and water activities such as kayaking will be available to try out on the waters between Ballycastle and Rathlin.
